Hecky cant polish a turd.

Sacko still cant square it.

Sakho is terrible.
O'Kane is a liability.
Roofe lost his mind.

However a bit more positive

Ekuban is back
Dallas can play wing or defence and he should start more often
Our supporters are brilliant

It was a penalty because it looked a penalty when it happened. O Kane was clumsy, contact was made. What was missed was a penalty we should have had for the handball.

Totally agree Faaip, O'Kan't gave the referee a very easy decision to make. Clumsy tackle, no need to have dived in like that, stand up and jockey the fella,,, Penalty all day long. Other way round we'd be claiming a penno.

Watched it loads of times. There was contact. Penalty. O'Kane was stupid. You can't tackle in the area these days. You have to shepherd them, and block if they try to cross.

Troll :lol:

My opinion O'Kane was slow to react initially, moved towards Fleck & then tried to pull out of the tackle. Fleck looked for the penalty & there may have been minimal contact, still unconvinced !
From where I was stood & more importantly where the referee was positioned it looked a certain penalty. O'Kane should have followed through & gone for the ball, he deliberated & in the end his indecisiveness cost us the game

Thought our fans were very quiet yesterday, slightly better than Hull but nothing like how aways use to be. Fifteen years of disillusionment/disappointment has probably taken it's toll

Tbh we were making clumsy challenges all over the park which has been the case for much of this season

Agreed, something I’m sure PH will address given time. But too late, seasons pretty much a right off already I’m afraid. Very disappointing.

I've looked at this a few times and, although to my mind it should never be a penalty, sadly, in this day and age, this type of incident is.....every time. O'Kane makes it easy for the ref to give by stepping across the blunt and impeding his run. Most of the time nowadays, if the attacking player drops his shin slightly into the defender's leg to make contact then the official will give it. It sucks but there you have it.
